[Gherid_lacksGPS]

I Was going to give him until at least stage 6......how major was it?

[userwave]

I Was going to give him until at least stage 6......how major was it?

it was just a shunt, but given that he had a moment during qualifying....
would be nice to see him surrender his ride to Atkinson for the remainder of the 2012 season....

[Gherid_lacksGPS]

He's only doing three events this year and will be focusing on the GRC/rallycross as his competitive venture - which is a better fit, imo. Does anyone know the plan for Atko? I know he and Ken are good friends and it has come up that they've toyed with the idea of having a team, but I don't even know if atko is confirmed for more events.

Atkinson's main drive for this year is likely to be the MRF (Indian tire company)Rally Team with a Skoda s2000 for the Asia Pacific Rally championship.

seems that there is 3min. gap between all cars

[Koppomsbo]

Go go go! :)

[dimviii]

splits seems to work.

[Juha_Koo]

Let's rock, shall we! :)

[Hartusvuori]

Let's rock, shall we! :)

Ominous!

[Juha_Koo]

Ominous!

I didn't say "Let's hit a rock" ;)

[N.O.T]

nice start by Neuville :)

[pete c]

rally radio sucks, they dont even know who navigates for whom.

[N.O.T]

Ogier is going to have problems with that useless clown Nobre and his retarded driving....

[wwbroe]

Neuville looks good on splits, hope he doesn't start too fast tough, rally is very long. ;)

[Tom206wrc]

Big attack from Thierry :eek:

[focus206]

Great time by Neuville! :)

[Tom206wrc]

Latvala even slower than Neuville on first splits :D

[Martin Luijk]

Neuville is used to drive in this conditions with an underpowered car. Great job.

[Hartusvuori]

Ogier is going to have problems with that useless clown Nobre and his retarded driving....

Did you see this?

http://www.rallymexico.com/files/rep/3.3_COC_Decision_1.pdf

That should help.

[rage82]

Maybe again Citroen is doing much better in this conditions against Ford?

[ZequeArgentina]

Ogier is going to have problems with that useless clown Nobre and his retarded driving....

Do not think so, even on the longest stage, at Nobre and Ogier speed no problem.
Nobre is being 2,4 sec /km slower than Ogier.

Longest stage today is similar to this one: 23,7km, so some 50 seconds slower in a 3 min difference < no problem unless Ogier step up and Nobre down.

[Tom206wrc]

Also Hirvonen big attack from split one ?? :confused:

[Mirek]

Did you see this?

http://www.rallymexico.com/files/rep/3.3_COC_Decision_1.pdf

That should help.

The only clown is N.O.T. Ogier went through finish line 2 minutes and 12 seconds after Nobre on more than 22 km...

[Tom206wrc]

Finally Latvala a bit faster than Neuville, but by a small margin ;)

[dimviii]

Mikko very fast at 1st split

edit even faster at 2nd split!!!!

[pettersolberg29]

Wow Mikko 2nd split

[Tom206wrc]

Wow split two Hirvonen :eek:

[pete c]

Hirvonen flying

[Juha_Koo]

Has Novikov changed his pacenote system?

[Tom206wrc]

Also Solberg very fast, quite close to Hirvo ;)

[Miika]

Loeb getting old? Finally?

[Tom206wrc]

Problem for Solberg ???? :s

[focus206]

Hirvonen very fast, what's with Petter?

[Mirek]

At least it looks like Ford engines aren't so terribly unsuited for high-altitudes like in last year (in comparison with Citroën).

[xavier]

Has Novikov changed his pacenote system?

yes, Denis has added "Stay on the road" after each note...
something like "120 right, stay on the road", "80 left don't cut, stay on the road"...

[pettersolberg29]

Petter in trouble?

[Sulland]

Spin, puncture or crash/damage for Petter ?

[darkstar]

doesnt look like a spin, he´s loosing more and more. great performance by hirvonen and neuville!

[Viking]

Oh crap :(

[darkstar]

hirvonen already starting to safe tires? sounds strange...40 seconds for solberg now, oh dear. i think he hit something and damaged the suspension. let´s see what he says in the interview ;)

edit: ok, left rear puncture...

[emk]

hirvonen already starting to safe tires? sounds strange...

It's too late to save the tires when they're already worn out...

[focus206]

Too bad for Petter, damn it :(

[darkstar]

It's too late to save the tires when they're already worn out...

yes, but already in first stage...but ok, if it works out for him, would be cool.

[Halvis]

What happened to Petter, any news on rally radio?

[Mirek]

Petter puncture... how classic. Pity we don't have puncture statistics.

[Tom206wrc]

Almost 1' lost for Petter :mark:
Let's see if he solved problem on starting now SS3 :rolleyes:

[Brother John]

As usual, I think he is too old to drive an entire rally and certainly in a factory team.

[Sulland]

To bad for Petter, 1 minute down is a blow, but he will fight back!

Good time by Neuville !

[N.O.T]

Very happy to see that Wilson not competing here are well... lets hope the trend continues for the rest of the clown squad.

[userwave]

Hah, classic, one thing is for sure, you certainly do speak your mind :)

[dimviii]

ss3 is on

[Viking]

As usual, I think he is too old to drive an entire rally and certainly in a factory team.

Loeb is older, don't think punktures is an result of age... really.

Petter “4 km I had a puncture then a spin”

Edit: left rear

[N.O.T]

hmmm hanging dust in the stage ???

[Tom206wrc]

Abbring nice pace to in the splits


Yep...but slower than Ogier despite his start position :confused:

[EightGear]

Yep...but slower than Ogier despite his start position :confused:

Comparing Ogier and Abbring at this stage in their career is a bit unfair IMO.

[dimviii]

no drivers comments from vysledky.cz?

[Tom206wrc]

Interestingly everybody on split one of SS3 is slower than Araujo, first on the road :confused:

[OldF]

It seems that they are changing the engine mapping during rally. I don’t know how it is in other rallies but in Mexico it is obvious because of different altitudes.

Jari-Matti Latvala 'needed more aggression' in Rally Mexico qualifying - WRC news - AUTOSPORT.com (http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/97907)

"There were a couple of things which were wrong this morning," said Latvala. "I went into the stage with the wrong engine map, I screwed up and took the wrong settings. The engine was OK, but it was too soft - I should have been on a more aggressive programme.”

[Viking]

no drivers comments from vysledky.cz?

wrc.com is now running a live text page (http://www.wrc.com/results/2012/corona-rally-mexico/live-text/)

[Negaiss]

This this shapeing to be a very interesting rally. Happy to see Atkinson on a pace. He was quite fast on first proper stage and think he will become even faster. Loeb, Hirvonen and Latvala will fight for a win, but battle of the rest will be very interesting, because Otsber, Novikov, Tanak, also Neuville, and Atkinson has similar pace.

[dimviii]

Nah...Neuville seems faster than them all(I mean Atkinson, Tänak, Östberg and Novikov) ;)

[EightGear]

Woa, very impressed with Neuville!

[Krigen]

Neuville fast again...

[Mirek]

That useless lady according to N.O.T? Impossible...

[Viking]

Should just say, not to bad from Østberg... then JML second split popped up!

[MJW]

Its early days but I too am impressed with "tarmac" IRC guy Neuville. But then again you dont win Corsica and San Remo in the same year without talent.

[RS]

Neuville is incredible. This is only his third gravel rally I think, and first in a WRCar?

[donlorean]

Neuville is incredible. This is only his third gravel rally I think, and first in a WRCar?

I like his driving in Cyprus last year when he beat Juho in Golden Stage... He is really bushing hard... Hope that he stays in road...

[bluuford]

Neuville is incredible. This is only his third gravel rally I think, and first in a WRCar?
Hopefully his tires last until the last stage. I wonder I Loebs slower pace is related to more conservative tire approach. There are still many km to go with the same tires.

[Viking]

Greg Strange rant on WRR

[TyPat107]

Ps. Got to look around Ramona Karlsson's service area and Im glad to inform you that she and her co driver Ms walfridsson are enjoying the sunny weather by wearing hotpants will post a pic soon!

not to break up the action but did this happen yet?


Nice to see Atkinson with at least some speed again. And block is still in the rally... Glad to see he is at least beating the... Um factory minis...

[Tom206wrc]

Latvala takes the lead after SS3 ;)
But I expect Hirvonen to charge back on the 23km long SS5 :cool:

[Viking]

more problems for Petter??

[EightGear]

LOL. Reporter: 'Are you worried about tire wear?' Paulo Nobre: 'Yes I am very tired.'

[Hartusvuori]

After two stages Neuville ahead of Östberg. That's some reference to start with. Let's see how it continues.

And Latvala in the lead, Hirvonen second, I like that too. And not too big margins yet.

[denkimi]

more problems for Petter??
he's losing 30 seconds again, so i assume there's something wrong.

[TyPat107]

more problems for Petter??

Ford tweeted another puncture

[OldF]

Stage 2&3 = 37,33 km

Stage 4&5 = 33,45 km

[Tom206wrc]

Petter lost a lot toward end of SS3 :confused:

[mousti]

Neuville is incredible. This is only his third gravel rally I think, and first in a WRCar?
Sixth or seven he did some in French gravel championship and JWRC.

[RS]

Sixth or seven he did some in French gravel championship and JWRC.

Ah yes, I forgot about those jWRC events. However I would still find these times impressive even if the top boys were sweeping.

[logic]

Petters rally is basically screwed , he used up 6 of his tires so far if he had another puncture.

[Tom206wrc]

Neuville attacking again on split one short SS4 ??? ;)

[userwave]

why is Petter getting to many punctures ? driving style ?

[TyPat107]

Petters rally is basically screwed , he used up 6 of his tires so far if he had another puncture.

I had hope that it was the tires' problem, but no one else seems to be having punctures. Is petter just trying too hard?

[logic]

I think he is trying too hard ;(

[Krigen]

maybe starting too far behind ..

[mousti]

Driving style indeed, last year he had pretty sure the most punctures over the whole season..

[Tom206wrc]

Interestingly Abbring is quite faster than Ogier in first splits SS3 this time :confused:

[focus206]

Loeb is flying at first split!

[dimviii]

Loeb amazing 1st split.Probably better tyres?

[mousti]

More cleaned way can help him nicely but still very good from Kevin. Gravel is no problem for him after a great year in France.

[Tom206wrc]

Loeb big attack on split one SS5 compared to Latvala :eek:

[Mise]

Mr Loeb is done saving tyres.

[Viking]

Something says me that Loeb will be wery fast on this one and ss5..

[JTGANG]

The km/h is quite low in this first loop of stages....Are they roads very narrow or surface very rough ????

[dimviii]

Mr Loeb is done saving tyres.

And there is and next stage with 23,7km with same tyres

[Tom206wrc]

Hirvonen faster than Latvala but less than Loeb on split one SS4 ;)

[xavier]

It is so great to have the reverse starting order!
Now we really have 3 days of rallying rather than seing who can be the slowest!

[dimviii]

The km/h is quite low in this first loop of stages....Are they roads very narrow or surface very rough ????

probably slow stages.At ss5 Araujo has 95km/h average
ss 2 had average 99km/h

[EightGear]

Abbring beats Ogier by 6,2 seconds. Nice.

[Tom206wrc]

Where's Nobre on SS5 ??? :rolleyes:

[N.O.T]

Where's Nobre on SS5 ??? :rolleyes:

lets hope he is out of the rally...no accident.

what a clown...

Block also stopped.

[bluuford]

Where's Nobre on SS5 ??? :rolleyes:
Nobre looks to be stopped just after split 4 on the right hand corner (From my Nokia map)

[bluuford]

Block is moving but just behind Atkinson

[r199]

think block had a flat tire,

[Tom206wrc]

Puncture for Block :confused:

[Tom206wrc]

Neuville slower than Tänak(and Östberg) this time :confused:

[pettersolberg29]

Faster than Tanak now

[mousti]

Neuville slower than Tänak(and Östberg) this time :confused:
1tenth faster now than Tanak but Ostberg attacking maybe also smart with the tires? :)

Østberg and Neuville are having a great fight.

[dimviii]

Lets see in this long stage if we ll have any big difference.

[Viking]

Neuville slower than Tänak(and Östberg) this time :confused:

I think i heard that Neuville had just one spare tyre and lighter car, maybe he is down to the thread?

[Tom206wrc]

What is that freak desire to comment every split update?

Sometimes when you're "under pressure" or excited it helps to write and comment(this is what I feel at the moment) :rolleyes:

[EuroTroll]

Ott finished strong. :up: He's doing a decent job so far.

[dimviii]

this live text is useless.Just mentioning the gaps after finish stages.What a clowns.

[mousti]

14 seconds faster Ostberg than Neuville.

latvala slower from Araujo on last split???

[focus206]

Something happened to Jari-Matti?

[Viking]

ups.. Latvala??

[dimviii]

Something happened to Jari-Matti?

seems to lost some 8-9 secs at last split

[bluuford]

Hirvonen has GPS problem. He is going to reach Split 3 in a few seconds

[Tom206wrc]

latvala slower from Araujo on last split???


:confused: he's not yet on last split I can see

Edit: now I see yes, Latvala in problems :s

Just arrived home from Zimbabwe to realise Rally Mexico is on.....happy boy :)

[dimviii]

Citroen 1-2-3?

[userwave]

Citroen 1-2-3?

quite possible now.

[pettersolberg29]

I fancy Ostberg, JML and Petter to catch Neuville over the length of the whole rally to be honest

[N.O.T]

problems for latvala

[EuroTroll]

quite possible now.

But unlikely, I'd say. There's still Latvala and also Östberg.

[OldF]

Gerard on Twitter

”Broken front suspension for JML”

[N.O.T]

Broken suspension....

[dimviii]

Gerard on Twitter

”Broken front suspension for JML”

Maybe from previous stage with the flat tyre?

[Tom206wrc]

I'm sure Neuville can catch Östberg on the second loop of stages this afternoon to get 3rd overall :up:

[Viking]

Quite impressed by Østberg, not a single meter of testing on gravel, only two runs on SD with rally GB settings on the car :up:

[EuroTroll]

I'm sure Neuville can catch Östberg on the second loop of stages this afternoon to get 3rd overall :up:

Wishful thinking. ;)

[Psycho!]

Rally is over prematurely once more.... A locked Citroen 1-2...A possible climb up for Fords for the rest of the rally...Every year the same thing....

[OldF]

Bad first run for Ford drivers.

JML –1,32
Pettter –1,26

:(

[N.O.T]

for all those that think the rally is over...just check the remaining days and the stages....LOL

[N.O.T]

sure the citroen drivers have an advantage and can hold a bit back to save tyres....but the rally is long from over.

[bluuford]

Neuville lost a lot on the last stage, so, it seems that it is purely his inexperience. Used his tires too much and was not enough left for the final stage. I think it will be much worse in the afternoon. Temperature will be even warmer and road will be more abrasive. So, we will see the real differences on the last two stages today.

[logic]

Want to see if team orders are in stor for Mikko and Petter . Both of them are infront of their number 1 drivers.

[Tom206wrc]

Too much early at this point of day to think of any team order :mark:

Let's see if Abbring can keep Ogier behind after that SS5 ;)

[Rallyper]

why is Petter getting to many punctures ? driving style ?

Too much cutting...

[EightGear]

Damn that's a shame, just 5 stages done and Ford basically already threw it away.

[darkstar]

hmmm, still some interesting things now: will hirvonen defeat loeb (or is he allowed to?) and what does neuville do...ok and how far can latvala get to the top again? a 3rd place still seems possible, same goes for solberg :)

[EuroTroll]

hmmm, still some interesting thing now: will hirvonen defeat loeb (or is he allowed to?) and what does neuville do...ok and how far can latvala get to the top again? a 3rd place still seems possible, same goes for solberg :)

Yeah, Östberg vs. Neuville is interesting and also Tänak vs. Novikov.

hmmm, still some interesting thing now: will hirvonen defeat loeb (or is he allowed to?) and what does neuville do...ok and how far can latvala get to the top again? a 3rd place still seems possible, same goes for solberg :)

And even at 95% the Citroens can get problems as well, so it is not over yet. But the big fight on every stage, as we like it might be.

Østberg after adjusting his GB settings might improve his speed as well!

[Rallyper]

It´s really too early to tell the outcome. We have to wait and see. Very much can happen. Even on the Micky Mouse stages...

[EuroTroll]

How is everyone's pickems looking? ;) I need Loeb to get a few punctures, and JML and Petter to steadily climb up. :)

1. Hirvonen
2. Latvala
3. Solberg
4. Loeb

Could happen! :cool:

[makinen_fan]

not sure if you guys have this link. live video feed from service park, how cool is this? NOS couldnt manage to do it for 10 years now....

[Mirek]

Yeah, Östberg vs. Neuville is interesting and also Tänak vs. Novikov.

And Abbring vs. Ogier. I know Abbring has better road position but considering his experience he's been pretty impressive in the first loop!

God for bid folks have time to tweet in a rally. Sorry to ask but when is the next service break?? Does Latvala have to drive with broken suspension any more?

[Crocone]

There is almost nothing to see. Hirvonen will not be aloud to beat Loeb. They will have their own rally without pushing too mutch. For sure Neuville (which will be a very good driver in future) will not keep the pace with Ostberg and Tanak. Maybe he will resist to Novikov. Jari Matti and Petter probably will be on 4th and 5th place at the end. So another rally spoiled before the first service park. :mad:

[EuroTroll]

Sorry to ask but when is the next service break??

Now. :)

[bluuford]

not sure if you guys have this link. live video feed from service park, how cool is this? NOS couldnt manage to do it for 10 years now....

Rally Guanajuato México 2012 Streaming (http://stream1.rallymexico.com/indexEN.php)
It kind of worked last year as well. Bit different format if I remember correctly. It is organized by rally itself.

[Tom206wrc]

Can't wait for the second loop of stages now :bounce:
There will be also a few SSSs to run, but they will be too late for me(11pm in France)so I don't care of them :rolleyes:

[dimviii]

And Abbring vs. Ogier. I know Abbring has better road position but considering his experience he's been pretty impressive in the first loop!

Didn t Ogier moan about road position? :D

[mousti]

Rumours about Neuville getting hit by stones and front window damaged :s

[Tom206wrc]

Why SS19 cancelled :confused:

[N.O.T]

Why SS19 cancelled :confused:

i think it is because the ss18 is ss19x2

[N.O.T]

40 minutes remaining...

[EuroTroll]

By the way, we have a birthday boy among us today. :cool: Happy birthday darkstar! :beer:

Here is the timetable in Finnish time. Solberg voitti aika-ajon &ndash; valitsee ajovuoron ensimmäisenä - MTV3.fi - Urheilu - Ralli - Uutiset (http://www.mtv3.fi/urheilu/ralli/uutiset.shtml/2012/03/1508354/solberg-voitti-aika-ajon---valitsee-ajovuoron-ensimmaisena) .You can see from the timetable when there’s service park.

[Gherid_lacksGPS]

Yet not clear... love to know it too...

[N.O.T]

GPS problems all around.

[Tom206wrc]

Mmmmh interesting...this time Al Attiyah is a bit faster than Atkinson ;)

[Jajá]

and no ss6 finish live coverage... :(

EDIT: just connected to Neil...

[Jajá]

SS9 cancelled due to safety reasons (rocks hit spectators on the 1st pass)

[EightGear]

Because a rock was thrown at Neuville at the first run...

[misar]

Stage cancelled due to people throwing rocks at cars, how stupid are they?

[Jajá]

Because a rock was thrown at Neuville at the first run...

You're correct. I heard on the radio they saying spectators were also hit... probably my english listening skills is not that accurate... apologies for the mistake :$

[Tom206wrc]

What morons this kind of spectators !!!! They will never understand the bad they do to the sport ???? :mad:

[EightGear]

No problem.

Those idiots can get a day to spend with N.O.T, that would be a fitting punishment. :D

[Tom206wrc]

Neuville ??? :confused:

[userwave]

What morons this kind of spectators !!!! They will never understand the bad they do to the sport ???? :mad:

I can't say anything or N.O.T. will get mad

[EightGear]

Oh crap Neuville in trouble, taken a wheel off.....

[misar]

Neuville out!

[Juha_Koo]

Neuville ??? :confused:

Wheel off.

[Allyc85]

I can't say anything or N.O.T. will get mad

ignore him, most of us do :)

[EuroTroll]

Novikov is taking a few secs off Tänak on this one... and has Neuville stopped?

Edit: Ok, so wheel off...

[A FONDO]

Yes, what a "great" idea is to spread the calendar in gypsy countries. I dont want to imagine what could happen if they make WRC round in Brazil or India as planned... probably armed robbery and hostages kidnapping at least.

p.s. I hate rallies with 3 minute gap!

[Tanelv]

Is there rally 2 (superrally) in Mexico?

Sorry I can't appeal to your tastes, but I'm not into shemales.

[tolis]

@Tanelv: Yes

Yes.

Thats border line racist, bout time you got the boot from this forum with your attitude.

[Jajá]

I don't think Brazil or India are gypsy countries, but I can say that in Brazil there would not be the rock throwing problem (maybe because there would be a few spectators on the stage, and those who would be are real rally fans, that would surely not do such a stupid thing...)

[focus206]

So Neuville is out? Too bad :(
Maybe he was pushing too much?

[userwave]

He showed incredible/promising pace

[misar]

It look´s like Loeb have the rally in his hand

[N.O.T]

The official citroens already on safe pace....now only things irrelevant to driving can form a different result

[N.O.T]

Hmmm...good pace by Neuville...but both times he tried to mix with the big boys mistakes happened....lets see.

[focus206]

He showed incredible/promising pace

Yes he was very fast but maybe he was taking too much risks...
